2021 Hyundai Elantra - Could the Hybrid model be more fun to drive? Let’s drive 2021 Hyundai Elantra

Today, we have 2021 Hyundai Elantra again, but this all new Hyundai Elantra has hybrid powertrain. The 1.6L gasoline gets help from 32kW electric motor, so the total system output comes out to be about 141hp. Of course the hybrid will be more efficient, but can this 2021 Hyundai Elantra with hybrid powertrain more fun to drive?

Dang! Even as a hybrid you're still driving like a mad man! Love the enthusiasm!

the special effects during the video are fantastic and make the video so much more entertaining to watch

You look like a giant in that backseat. I drive a hybrid Ioniq and the transition from EV to gas is very smooth. Great video as always.

[@AsianPetrolhead]

Yes, i am 6.2, so bit large for this car. But this 2021 Hyundai Elantra drive very nicely and also handles very nicely, especially with hybrid powertrain. Thanks Egan.

You have some of the best reviews. I am looking at a 2022 elantra hybrid blue, but availability is extremely tight. I originally wanted the ionic, but they've DC'd them. Keep up great reviews.

[@tapper701]

For myself, this is the Class leader in this category of passenger vehicle. Both exterior & interior are well executed ! Slainte' ! Cheers !

[@SaintMecha]

Elantra N (full N, not the N-Line whatever) will be the most fun for sure. The 2.0T from the G70/Stinger/VN is and 8DCT will be great on the Elantra super light body.

[@AsianPetrolhead]

Yes, hope to show you the Elantra N with this 2021 Hyundai Elantra. Thank you Abulla.

too bad no more hatchback

[@bdpSovietafr0]

Hope it gets a LSD so it can put all that power down.... if it does, its a Civic R competitor

@@bdpSovietafr0 both the Veloster N and i30N got e-LSD. Elantra N will get it as well since it's based on the same N platform as the other two.

Hey Charlie, thanks for a great review again! Love the car! The front face feels like a space ship! I like it! How big is the gas tank? Could you please include gas tank info in your reviews (similar to the horn) it should be a quick info about the tank size.

We just bought the same color combo 2021 Elantra Limited Hybrid. A few things are different from the Korean version you tested, vs the American one we have. Our car doesn’t have the rear vents in the back of the console. Our car doesn’t have rear, heated seats. But, we do have the full Blind spot monitoring system. We love the car so far.

[@twystedhumour]

lol, Charlie, you're crazy (with pushing car to limits)! loved the review. easy to consider this vs. Toyota or Honda equivalents. styling's a bit iffy; may not age well, but it's very modern. and thanks for showing off the features! i think this is more fun to drive due to multilink suspension in back, plus the weight of battery making this closer to 50/50. what's the maintenance on the DCT like? i'm wondering if it's same to 30,000 mile-interval service.

[@nottaiyaki]

Hi Charlie! Thx for this review. I like the fact that Hyundai is making such a beautiful hybrid car. Looks the same but actually it is not like Toyota with that annoying cvt gearbox. This is way better and I like it. Hyundai/Kia are doing an epic job in last couple of years. Wow!

Hi Charlie! I have a question for you: which Elantra generation you think is the best one?

I think AD 2016 year model before facelift is the best looking Hyundai Elantra. But powertrain and interior wise, the brand new 7th gen 2021 Hyundai Elantra is my favorite. Thank you.

Asian Petrolhead agree with you! I also think that MD generation is a sexy sporty looking car

What is the maximum speed that one may reach using only the electric motor? Is that dependent on how fast one accelerates, if that is the case how fast may one travel with the electric motor only provided that one accelerates very slowly?

Very good review. I'm sure it's a great car, but I like my 2017 Elantra too much to even think about replacing it. Bought new in june 2016. Southern California car. Fully loaded, just turned 75.000 miles and has been absolutely flawless. 0 repairs. Looks, runs and drives like new. Iam definitely sold on Hyundai! That new Tuscon is awesome though!

I remember latest Elantra I test drove in 2017 (latest model in Europe) basic without any options was 125000HRK (19.429,75 dollars) so to see this price in Korea my mind is just blown it would probably be cheaper for me to buy it directly from there and import it here Amazing review as always :D
